Cook ingredients that you are used to cooking by other techniques, such as fish, chicken, or hamburgers. In other words be comfortable with the ingredients you are using.

A New Culinary Year Begins

Happy New Year


From our kitchen to yours, we would like to extend a warm New Year's greeting.  May your tables be laden with wonderful foods throughout 2012.  May your culinary experience in 2012 be fabulous, filled with delicious foods.  We have a lot of plans for this blog this coming year so please won't you join us in the new culinary year unfolding.

Today we celebrate a brand new year with our traditional surf & turf dinner.  On the surf side the appetizer will be crabmeat dip.  This is a family favourite served at most holiday gatherings for our family and friends.  On the turf side the meat will be grilled organic, hormone free T-bone steaks combined with the surf side of Cuban rock lobster tails served with baked potatoes and a side salad.  The outdoor grill will be used regardless of the weather but I am hoping there is a break in the rain while grilling the steaks.  Unlike our last home, the grill is not sheltered from the weather but grill we shall!
